  1. FIrst a little background...we have at our plant over 100 trailer slots...Our people load the flatbeds, tarping company secures the load and jockeys them to a trailer slot outside...where they are backed into the slot. Normally, the drivers bring in an empty, drop it in an empties slot, back under a load and off they go....works pretty smooth... So the other night the state police are at our gate because a truck driver says he was the victim of a hit and run. He said that while he was sleeping (against the rules!), some other driver backed into his truck and damaged the front of his truck and his radiator. As the tale was told to the police it just wasnt adding up, as the driver did not see anything, or get out of his sleeper in time, when he looked there were no other trucks on the property...etc...etc...the police, the driver, and our loading supervisor did an inspection of the other trailers, loaded and not, and could find damage or other evidence of any collision on the backs of the trailers. When they got back to the guys truck, the state police and our loading supervisor examined the damage closer and found a glad hand stuck in the radiator!!! Further questioning of the truck driver could produce no answer as to how someone backed into his truck and left an object that is between a truck and a tractor! Our loading supervisor and the trooper did a another inspection of all of the trailers... Now that they knew where to look, they found a trailer with scrapes and paint that matched the damaged truck, on closer inspection, it was found that this trailer had a different style of glad hands than all of the others of this companys trailers! And did not even match from side to side, AND looked obviously like it was new compared to the other one. So (no proof, but this is what the officer wrote in his report), not only did the truck driver victim actually run into a parked trailer and broke off the glad hand in his radiator, he got one from his stash and replaced the one he broke, (different style) but did not think to look for the one in his radiator! The officer filed charges of filing a false police report, and giving false testimony. His truck had to be towed, and he was banned from our site. The driver has another tractor and driver so we banned them both from our site because we would not be able to guarantee that the first driver was not onsite. The freight company fired him and his other driver, and he has to go to court to answer the charges!!! Would have been a lot easier to 'fess up I think...

They also have the choice between cloth and plastic covered! They even have different tracer patterns! If you need period cloth wire, they have what you need! http://www.riwire.com/
